Tropics research cruise

We will be heading out to sea on October 13th 2013 until 30th November 2013.

We will be sailing on the James Cook with the Remotely Operated Vehicle Isis

Although we embark in Tenerife, our sampling sites are much further south, within the Equatorial Atlantic. We will traverse the Atlantic stopping to collect samples before arriving at our final destination of Trinidad.
